My DISNEY MARATHON Experience in 2 MINUTES

Watch Video Below

I signed up for my very FIRST MARATHON about 8 months ago, and I chose the Walt Disney World Marathon! I had an amazing experience, but that doesn't mean that I didn't struggle. Although I decided to run this challenge for fun, it still kicked my butt! Prior to this race, I have never ran 26.2 miles before. I think the most I've ever ran was about 21-23 miles, which killed me.

I am more of a trail runner, but something just intrigued me about this race, so I decided to add it to my bucket list, and it was one of the best decisions that I've ever made. It taught me about my limits, what I need to work on, and how strong I am mentally.

My First Marathon!

I finally understand what it means by "hitting the wall", because by mile 20 I started to feel like crashing. By mile 22, I didn't know if I could go on! Yes, quitting did cross my mind, but I didn't let that take over, I blocked the pain, and kept on going. From the 22nd mile, it became all mental for me, and I made it and crossed the finish line! A big, huge thanks to couple things: mustard packets, Beachbody Performance Hydrate, GU's, and the motivation from complete strangers throughout the course, it was so helpful!

So I made this quick 2 minute video on my 26.2 miles that I did on January 10th, 2016. #WDWMarathon, I will be back! =)
